My name is Anne and this is my allotment in the north-east of England. I love to be there.
So that I can keep track of what I am growing and where I am growing it, I am keeping a diary. Feel free to add a comment, I might reply..or I might not.

Lady Eleanor's hat has blown down over her eyes...

It has been warm the last few days (7C+) after last week which was bitter cold (-1C) The sunshine despatched some of the snow

Sowed some broad beans (Wizard) even though it is the wrong time of year...could be too early for lates and too late for earlies, But what with climate change, cold summers and warm winters, I might get away with it. Giving it a go.

See what I mean!..a chrysanthemum flowering in January

Am resisting temptation to start some tomatoes away. I will not sow tomatoes till March....I will not sow tomatoes till March....I will not sow tomatoes till March....
